About this file
This document is a comprehensive state and local contract opportunity for the Newport Municipal Airport's Large Onsite Septic System (L.O.S.S.) project in Newport, Oregon. The contract involves the design, procurement, installation, and commissioning of a new septic system across multiple areas including the FBO (Fixed-Base Operator), FedEx, Coast Guard, and Final Treatment Area. The project encompasses various technical specifications, electrical work, underground utilities, conduit installation, trenching, directional boring, and associated infrastructure improvements. The total project is documented across 35 drawing sheets dated October 2025, with detailed specifications for electrical, construction, and septic system components.
The contract includes multiple bid items with specific measurements and payment structures, such as lump sum payments for septic improvements, electrical work, and trench installations. Payment will be phased, with 40% paid upon system component order confirmation, 50% upon satisfactory installation and testing, and the remaining 10% upon project closeout and submission of operations and maintenance manuals. The project is subject to Oregon prevailing wage rates and will require compliance with state and local regulations. Contractors will need to provide performance bonds, meet specific technical requirements, and adhere to detailed installation specifications for electrical, underground, and septic system components. The project appears to be funded through local municipal infrastructure improvement budgets.

NPT015, Large Onsite Septic System 1 C-102 Temporary Air and Water Pollution, Soil Erosion, and Siltation Control
ITEM C-102 TEMPORARY AIR AND WATER POLLUTION, SOIL EROSION, AND SILTATION CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
102-1. This item shall consist of temporary control measures as shown on the plans or as ordered by the Resident
Project Representative (RPR) during the life of a contract to control pollution of air and water, soil erosion, and siltation through the use of silt fences, berms, dikes, dams, sediment basins, fiber mats, gravel, mulches, grasses, slope drains, and other erosion control devices or methods.
Temporary erosion control shall be in accordance with the approved erosion control plan; the approved Construction
Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP) and AC 150/5370-2, Operational Safety on Airports During Construction. The temporary erosion control measures contained herein shall be coordinated with the permanent erosion control measures specified as part of this contract to the extent practical to assure economical, effective, and continuous erosion control throughout the construction period.
Temporary control may include work outside the construction limits such as borrow pit operations, equipment and material storage sites, waste areas, and temporary plant sites.
Temporary control measures shall be installed and maintained to minimize the creation of wildlife attractants that have the potential to attract hazardous wildlife on or near public-use airports.
MATERIALS
102-2.1 GRASS. Not Used.
102-2.2 MULCHES. Not Used.
102-2.3 FERTILIZER. Not Used.
102-2.4 SLOPE DRAINS. Not Used.
102-2.5 SILT FENCE. Silt fence shall consist of polymeric filaments which are formed into a stable network such that filaments retain their relative positions. Synthetic filter fabric shall contain ultraviolet ray inhibitors and stabilizers to provide a minimum of six months of expected usable construction life. Silt fence shall meet the requirements of
ASTM D6461.
102-2.6 OTHER. All other materials shall meet commercial grade standards and shall be approved by the RPR before being incorporated into the project.
CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
102-3.1 GENERAL. In the event of conflict between these requirements and pollution control laws, rules, or regulations of other federal, state, or local agencies, the more restrictive laws, rules, or regulations shall apply.
The Contractor shall be responsible for assuring compliance to the extent that construction practices, construction operations, and construction work are involved.
102-3.2 SCHEDULE. Prior to the start of construction, the Contractor shall submit schedules in accordance with the approved Construction Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP) and the plans for accomplishment of temporary and permanent erosion control work for clearing and grubbing; grading; construction; paving; and structures at watercourses. The Contractor shall also submit a proposed method of erosion and dust control on haul roads and borrow pits and a plan for disposal of waste materials. Work shall not be started until the erosion control schedules and methods of operation for the applicable construction have been accepted by the RPR.
NPT015, Large Onsite Septic System 2 C-102 Temporary Air and Water Pollution, Soil Erosion, and Siltation Control
102-3.3 CONSTRUCTION DETAILS. The Contractor will be required to incorporate all permanent erosion control features into the project at the earliest practicable time as outlined in the plans and approved CSPP. Except where future construction operations will damage slopes, the Contractor shall perform the permanent seeding and mulching and other specified slope protection work in stages, as soon as substantial areas of exposed slopes can be made available. Temporary erosion and pollution control measures will be used to correct conditions that develop during construction that were not foreseen during the design stage; that are needed prior to installation of permanent control features; or that are needed temporarily to control erosion that develops during normal construction practices, but are not associated with permanent control features on the project.
Where erosion may be a problem, schedule and perform clearing and grubbing operations so that grading operations and permanent erosion control features can follow immediately if project conditions permit. Temporary erosion control measures are required if permanent measures cannot immediately follow grading operations. The RPR shall limit the area of clearing and grubbing, excavation, borrow, and embankment operations in progress, commensurate with the Contractor’s capability and progress in keeping the finish grading, mulching, seeding, and other such permanent control measures current with the accepted schedule. If seasonal limitations make such coordination unrealistic, temporary erosion control measures shall be taken immediately to the extent feasible and justified as directed by the RPR.
The Contractor shall provide immediate permanent or temporary pollution control measures to minimize contamination of adjacent streams or other watercourses, lakes, ponds, or other areas of water impoundment as directed by the RPR. If temporary erosion and pollution control measures are required due to the Contractor’s negligence, carelessness, or failure to install permanent controls as a part of the work as scheduled or directed by the RPR, the work shall be performed by the Contractor and the cost shall be incidental to this item.
The RPR may increase or decrease the area of erodible earth material that can be exposed at any time based on an analysis of project conditions.
The erosion control features installed by the Contractor shall be maintained by the Contractor during the construction period.
Provide temporary structures whenever construction equipment must cross watercourses at frequent intervals.
Pollutants such as fuels, lubricants, bitumen, raw sewage, wash water from concrete mixing operations, and other harmful materials shall not be discharged into any waterways, impoundments or into natural or manmade channels.
102-3.4 INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND REMOVAL OF SILT FENCE. Silt fences shall extend a minimum of 16 inches (41 cm) and a maximum of 34 inches (86 cm) above the ground surface. Posts shall be set no more than 10 feet (3 m) on center. Filter fabric shall be cut from a continuous roll to the length required minimizing joints where possible. When joints are necessary, the fabric shall be spliced at a support post with a minimum 12-inch (300-mm) overlap and securely sealed. A trench shall be excavated approximately 4 inches (100 mm) deep by 4 inches (100
mm) wide on the upslope side of the silt fence. The trench shall be backfilled and the soil compacted over the silt fence fabric. The Contractor shall remove and dispose of silt that accumulates during construction and prior to establishment of permanent erosion control. The fence shall be maintained in good working condition until permanent erosion control is established. Silt fence shall be removed upon approval of the RPR.
METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
102-4.1 Temporary erosion and pollution control work required will be performed as scheduled or directed by the
RPR. Completed and accepted work will be measured as follows:
a. Measurement for all other temporary erosion control work required which is not attributed to the
Contractor's negligence, carelessness, or failure to install permanent controls will be performed as scheduled, in compliance with local, state, and national laws and permits, as shown on the plans, or as ordered by the RPR.
Completed and accepted work, not otherwise identified for separate measurement and payment, will be measured as lump sum.
b. Installation and removal of silt fence will be measured by the linear foot.

NPT015, Large Onsite Septic System 1 P-152 Excavation, Subgrade, and Embankment
ITEM P-152 EXCAVATION, SUBGRADE, AND EMBANKMENT
DESCRIPTION
152-1.1 This item covers excavation, disposal, placement, and compaction of all materials within the limits of the work required to construct trenches, underground tanks, or other purposes in accordance with these specifications and in conformity to the dimensions and typical sections shown on the plans. This specification does not apply to drip fields; soils beneath drip fields shall be compacted per manufacturer requirements.
The Contractor shall furnish, place, and maintain all supports and shoring that may be required for the sides of the excavations; and all pumping or other approved measures for the removal or exclusion of water, including storm water, reaching the site from any source so as to prevent damage to the site. Slopes on the sides of temporary excavations shall be such as to ensure safe execution of the work in accordance with applicable governmental requirements and regulations.
152-1.2 CLASSIFICATION. All material excavated shall be classified as defined below:
a. Unclassified excavation. Unclassified excavation shall consist of the excavation and disposal of all material, regardless of its nature.
152-1.3 UNSUITABLE EXCAVATION. Unsuitable material shall be disposed of offsite. Materials containing vegetable or organic matter, such as muck, peat, organic silt, or sod shall be considered unsuitable for use in embankment construction. Material suitable for topsoil may be used on the embankment slope when approved by the RPR.
Unsuitable material is defined as material the Engineer determines to be incapable of being compacted to specified density using ordinary methods at optimum moisture.
Excessive moisture in the material is not, by itself, sufficient cause for determining that the material is unsuitable.
In-place drying techniques shall be employed prior to defining the material as unsuitable. In-place drying methods shall consist of windrowing, discing, turning, and otherwise manipulating the material to achieve drying and compaction. Vibratory or steel drum compaction equipment and rubber-tired excavation equipment shall not be used in unstable areas unless approved by the Engineer. No separate measurement or payment will be made for in-place drying.
CONSTRUCTION METHODS
152-2.1 GENERAL. Before beginning excavation, grading, and embankment operations in any area, the area shall be completelystripped, approximately, 2 to 4 inches in depth, to remove all vegetation. Contractor shall verify depth of stripping with RPR prior to beginning work.
The suitability of material to be placed in embankments shall be subject to approval by the RPR. All unsuitable material shall be disposed of offsite.
When the Contractor’s excavating operations encounter artifacts of historical or archaeological significance, the operations shall be temporarily discontinued and the RPR notified per Section 70, paragraph 70-20. At the direction of the RPR, the Contractor shall excavate the site in such a manner as to preserve the artifacts encountered and allow for their removal. Such excavation will be paid for as extra work.
Areas outside of the limits of the pavement areas where the top layer of soil has become compacted by hauling or other Contractor activities shall be scarified and disked to a depth of 4 inches , to loosen and pulverize the soil.
Stones or rock fragments larger than 4 inches in their greatest dimension will not be permitted in the top 6 inches of the subgrade.
NPT015, Large Onsite Septic System 2 P-152 Excavation, Subgrade, and Embankment
If it is necessary to interrupt existing surface drainage, sewers or under-drainage, conduits, utilities, or similar underground structures, the Contractor shall be responsible for and shall take all necessary precautions to preserve them or provide temporary services. When such facilities are encountered, the Contractor shall notify the RPR, who shall arrange for their removal if necessary. The Contractor, at their own expense, shall satisfactorily repair or pay the cost of all damage to such facilities or structures that may result from any of the Contractor’s operations during the period of the contract.
a. Blasting. Blasting shall not be allowed.
152-2.2 EXCAVATION. No excavation shall be started until the work has been staked out by the Contractor and the RPR has obtained from the Contractor, the survey notes of the elevations and measurements of the ground surface. The Contractor and RPR shall agree that the original ground lines shown on the original topographic mapping are accurate, or agree to any adjustments made to the original ground lines.
All areas to be excavated shall be stripped of vegetation and topsoil. Topsoil shall be stockpiled for future use in areas designated on the plans or by the RPR. All suitable excavated material shall be used in the formation of embankment, subgrade, or other purposes as shown on the plans. All unsuitable material shall be disposed of as shown on the plans.
The grade shall be maintained so that the surface is well drained at all times.
When the volume of the excavation exceeds that required to construct the embankments to the grades as indicated on the plans, the excess shall be used to grade the areas of ultimate development or disposed as directed by the RPR. When the volume of excavation is not sufficient for constructing the embankments to the grades indicated, the deficiency shall be obtained from borrow areas.
a. Selective grading. When selective grading is indicated on the plans, the more suitable material designated by the RPR shall be used in constructing the embankment or in capping the pavement subgrade. If, at the time of excavation, it is not possible to place this material in its final location, it shall be stockpiled in approved areas until it can be placed. The more suitable material shall then be placed and compacted as specified. Selective grading shall be considered incidental to the work involved. The cost of stockpiling and placing the material shall be included in the various pay items of work involved.
b. Undercutting. Rock, shale, hardpan, loose rock, boulders, or other material unsatisfactory for safety areas, subgrades, roads, shoulders, or any areas intended for turf shall be excavated to a minimum depth of 12 inches below the subgrade or to the depth specified by the RPR. Muck, peat, matted roots, or other yielding material, unsatisfactory for subgrade foundation, shall be removed to the depth specified. Unsuitable materials shall be disposed of off Airport property. The excavated area shall be backfilled with suitable material obtained from the grading operations or borrow areas and compacted to specified densities. Undercutting in areas of new pavement construction shall be backfilled with base material meeting all requirements of the aggregate base per Oregon
Standard Specifications for construction (OSS), current edition, Section 00641. . Where rock cuts are made, backfill with select material. Any pockets created in the rock surface shall be drained in accordance with the details shown on the plans.
c. Over-break. Over-break, including slides, is that portion of any material displaced or loosened beyond the finished work as planned or authorized by the RPR. All over-break shall be graded or removed by the Contractor and disposed of as directed by the RPR. The RPR shall determine if the displacement of such material was unavoidable and their own decision shall be final. Payment will not be made for the removal and disposal of over-break that the RPR determines as avoidable. Unavoidable over-break will be classified as “Unclassified Excavation.”
d. Removal of utilities. The removal of existing structures and utilities required to permit the orderly progress of work will be accomplished by the Contractor if indicated on the plans. All existing foundations shall be excavated at least 2 feet below the top of subgrade or as indicated on the plans, and the material disposed of as directed by the RPR. All foundations thus excavated shall be backfilled with suitable material and compacted as specified for embankment or as shown on the plans.

152-2.3 BORROW EXCAVATION. Borrow areas are not required.
152-2.4 DRAINAGE EXCAVATION. Not Used.
152-2.5 PREPARATION OF CUT AREAS OR AREAS WHERE EXISTING PAVEMENT HAS BEEN REMOVED. In those areas on which a subbase or base course is to be placed, the top 12 inches of subgrade shall be compacted to not less than 95 % of maximum density for non-cohesive soils, and 95% of maximum density…
